Had Ron from Manhattan on the boat today. We had decent conditions and a ton of fish. We put a few 5-10 pound red drum in the boat and ended the day with a hog, 28 pound redfish on fly.
Monday 10/26 was a tough day on the water. I was fishing with the same group from the past three days and the wether turned from ok to worse. We had strong winds and no sun. We Launched out of Delacroix, LA and fish the interior marsh in a little shallower water because that is what the conditions forced us to do. We had a half day to make it happen so we went right to a few of my best shallow flats. The fish were there tailing and backing down the shorelines but they weren’t acting the way they had been for the past three days, they were finikey. The water in the marsh was gin clear and we were getting decent shots but the fishing gods weren’t with us today. We hooked seven redfish, all nice ones between 7-12 pounds. The only problem was that they all got off after the hook set. The fish were nipping at the fly and getting them close to the outside of the mouth and when they would get in the grass the hook pulled every time. That’s why they call it fishing, not catching! Still a great day on the water with two awesome anglers who got a chance to fish the Louisiana Marsh for the first time.
